Name. 
Address . 
I went south over the trapline that ran 
to Kimberly Lake. My first stop was . 
at Little Smoky Crossing, a distance of 
twelve miles from the Ninety Mile, and 
as I pulled up with my dog team I saw 
faint traces of smoke coming from the 
rusty stove pipe. It was a little after 
noon and as I saw no one about the 
place, I decided to go onto Kimberly, an 
additional eight miles. For some reason 
I never thought that Stillman might be 
staying there, assuming that some 
wandering breed had happened along. 
That night I camped in my little cabin 
on the shores of Kimberly. The com¬ 
ing daylight saw me well on my way 
over the southern extremity of my trap- 
line—a string of traps running some 
eight miles south. While I had another 
cabin at this end, at Moose Lake, I did 
not stop there but made the return trip 
to Kimberly. The next day at ten o’¬ 
clock I was at the Little Smoky cabin. 
I noted that someone had again been 
there and after investigating I dis¬ 
covered that this mysterious party had 
a bunch of small traps set around the 
old buildings, presumably for weasels, 
as these little furbearers were quite 
numerous that year. I decided to wait 
there until the owner turned up, and if 
it was a breed I would warn him that 
he was trapping on my territory. 
About eight o’clock, Stillman (for it 
was he) came into the cabin. He was 
surprised to find me there and was a- 
fraid that I was bent on doing him harm. 
Poor fellow, I felt sorry for him as he 
regarded every man in the light of an 
enemy. I had noticed a can on the 
table which contained what I presumed 
to be bait for traps, as it had the smell 
of rotted fish, and one can imagine 
how I felt when I saw him pour some 
of it out on one of my tin plates 
and start eating it! I hastily got busy 
and gave him some food from my own 
supply. Out of curiosity I afterward 
looked at that mess and saw that the 
whitefish (one he had brought from the 
Ninety Mile House) had not even been 
scaled or cleaned and a little rice had 
been boiled with it. 
As a fitting finish for such a profit¬ 
able season, Walters and I rafted down 
the Little Smoky and shot and trapped 
a number of beavers as well as several 
bears, two of which were large cin¬ 
namons. We lost quite a bit of our 
outfit when our raft capsized under a 
“sweeper,” but such is the fortunes of 
the wilderness trapper. That trip would 
have made the basis for a mighty, good 
yarn and some time I will write it out 
in detail. The Little Smoky is a treach- 
earous stream, and in the high water 
dangerously swift. Unlike the larger 
streams, such as the Big Smoky and 
the Athabasca, these smaller rivers have 
their high-water period shortly after 
the break-up in the Spring and they 
fairly boil at this time. On a large 
stream a man can handle a raft in sdme 
mighty rough water and I have per¬ 
sonally rafted through six miles of rapids 
on the Athabasca with less danger than 
I have experienced on smaller streams 
like the JLittle Smoky and Baptiste. The
